/ Bali, here I am! Finally – I’ve been looking so much forward to this destination. Surfing, awesome drinks, a unique culture and tropical nature. I met the other girls who’s also traveling through Kilroy in Phuket before we went to Bali on sunday. We’ll spend the first couple of days on Bliss Surfer Hotel, and after that we can go wherever we’d like! Perfect for me!

/ Kuta is a town in southern Bali here in Indonesia. The town is a former fishing village and was one of the first towns on Bali who received a substantial tourist industry. It may be noted if you do not seek the right attractions. I actually like Kuta, but I’m keen to see the rest of Bali. Monday I spent in the best possible way since Tuesday’s Silence Day (this I will return to in later posts).

/ The first thing I do before I reach my destination is to buy myself a Lonely Planet book about the destination I will be visiting. That’s how I find recommended places, restaurants, cafes, attractions and activities. The Lonely Planet book about Bali helped be decide where to go. I have decided to travel from Kuta to Uluwatu, and on to Seminyak, Ubud and Lombok. During this route I’ll be able to surf, see nature and get to know the culture. Here in Bali I frequently use Air BNB since you get luxury for small money.

/ Monday I tried to make the best of the day (cause we have to stay inside the whole tuesday for Silence Day) since it literally is gonna be the only productive day here before we head to Ulu Watu. I had breakfast while it was raining like crazy, at Crumb & Coaster, and wow, I’ve never had such a healthy, delicious breakfast with such a friendly staff! Furthermore, I went surfing at Legian Beach with UP2U Surf School Bali. It’s incredibly nice to feel the waves again. This is gonna be nice.
